@equinox Consensus is required, certainly, but it's also impressive to see this spec not even managing to achieve majority support. A year ago the "security area director" was putting up postings claiming support for this spec from (1) everybody but me, (2) the "vast majority", and (3) the "overwhelming majority". The chairs today aren't claiming consensus but still haven't admitted how much opposition there is; they're acting as if there were merely some editorial objections.
